Description

2,4-Nonadien-1-Ol is an unsaturated fatty alcohol characterized by a distinctive, powerful green, waxy, and fatty odor profile. This compound matters as a key fragrance and flavor intermediate, prized for its ability to impart natural, cucumber-like, and melon notes to complex formulations. It is primarily needed by manufacturers in the flavor and fragrance industry, as well as by researchers developing novel aroma chemicals and studying the sensory properties of lipids.

Application

• Fragrance Formulation: Used as a key component to create and enhance green, waxy, fatty, and cucumber-like top notes in perfumes, colognes, and personal care products.
• Flavor Creation: Serves as a building block for synthesizing flavors that mimic melon, cucumber, and other fresh, green fruits in food and beverage applications.
• Aroma Chemical Synthesis: Acts as a valuable intermediate in the production of more complex fragrance and flavor molecules.
• Research & Development: Utilized in academic and industrial R&D for studying olfaction, flavor chemistry, and the synthesis of natural product analogs.
• Cosmetic Ingredients: Incorporated into specialty cosmetic formulations where specific, natural green olfactory characteristics are desired.

Quality Control

Our 2,4-Nonadien-1-Ol is produced and handled under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including GC analysis for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for flavor and fragrance applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing specific batch results are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated place at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its properties of being easily oxidized (store under inert atmosphere) and highly volatile, containers must be kept tightly sealed under an inert gas blanket after opening and away from heat and ignition sources.
